The hotel is located in a convenient area in between Ampang and Kuala Lumpur, with clean and comfortable rooms that are detached from the main building. The service provided by the friendly staff is professional. The dining options are limited, but the homemade sausages are a standout feature.

The hotel has a convenient location near the highways, offering easy access, but the noisy rooms facing the bridge can be disturbing at night. The service lacks English proficiency and can be intrusive at times, but housekeeping is satisfactory. The dining experience is average with an emphasis on Asian cuisine, and the facilities are decent. Overall, considering the value for money, it may be worth exploring other options for a more pleasant stay.

The hotel had a nice size room that could accommodate triple occupancy, but it felt more like a hospital than a hotel. Unfortunately, the room wasn't ready upon arrival and was quite filthy. However, the staff was friendly and the room had enough space for an additional single bed.

The accommodations feel more like small apartments, which can be a plus if you prefer a homely vibe, but they face busy highways and noisy construction sites rather than a tranquil lake view. The rooms are equipped with basic wicker furniture, a functional air conditioner, and a kitchen area lacking refreshments. The service staff, although friendly and prompt, need improvement in handling check-ins smoothly. The location is a bit secluded from the city center, accessible only through a pricey taxi ride to the nearest LRT station. The dining options are limited and underwhelming, with high prices for what's offered.

The hotel is perfect for couples on a honeymoon seeking a romantic atmosphere in the room. The hotel is suitable for elderly guests looking for a comfortable stay. The service was promptly attentive to fix any issues, though the noise level from staff could be improved. The location is convenient for various activities in the Ampang area.
